Summary
This video is a training resource from Alameda County authored by the Alameda County District Attorney's Office. This is part of a "weekly video surveillance of criminal law" prepared for CLE purposes. It delves into the nuances of sentencing for juveniles and youthful offenders, informed by landmark Supreme Court rulings such as Miller v. Alabama and explains the constitutional limitations on life without parole (LWOP) sentences for juveniles, the criteria for parole suitability hearings under Penal Code section 3051, and the implications of cases like People v. Caballero for "de facto" LWOP sentences. This video is from May 23, 2016 and was produced by the Alameda County District Attorney's Office on November 3, 2022 in response to a July 23, 2021 PRA request.
